Anyone know for sure? I found what I thought were a couple of good sites that spelled it mat, but my derm doc just dictated it and spelled matte, so I am not sure. Thanks!

Because of words like the one you were looking for, and because it seems like she needed a minimum of 10 adjectives to describe every single speck on the skin - "Pt has a small, reddish-brown, raised, oval-shaped, 0.5 cm x 0.5 cm (etc., etc.) spot on the upper left arm..." (Don't mean to be insensitive to the patients. Just don't miss it is all I'm saying!)

And I was wondering if he may be referring to a dept at hospital for prosthesis fitting, as he later mentions IPOF/IPOP again as a consultation.
I'm thinking that the doc may not have completed his train of thought. He goes from saying the patient has what he thinks is a MRSA infection just above the stump, then he's dictating something else. Previous notes are no help, as they read as a disjointed thought process as well.
Oh well - thanks for your help!

I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
Subject: I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
According to Google, they seem to both have the same definition.
Myerson's sign is a medical condition where a patient is unable to resist blinking when tapped on the glabella, the area above the nose and between the eyebrows. It is often an early symptom of Parkinson's disease.
Snout Reflex: percuss the upper lip near the midline - pursing or puckering of lips; glabellar reflex (=Meyerson's sign) - percuss on forehead in the middle above eyes: produces continued blinking with each tap. Also seen in Parkinson's. Grasp Reflex - stroke the mid-palm upward to fingers; you may warn the patient not to hold on.
Since, the doc is spelling Meyerson, I would give him that one.
Crazy huh?
